If it's for speed and ease, calculator.
If it's to teach your child, multiplication tables.

Mentally? I suggest actually learning the tables but as well see if your child can enroll in an abacus class. If your child uses an abacus enough, he/she will be able to externalize the calculations. It's like being able to do all sorts of math without focusing on the numbers, quite neat.
The abacus is a powerless calculator basically.

In Montessori we'd show the kids visually. We'd have a string of beads or ones/tens/hundreds blocks and show them if you got a string of 7 beads ... then multiplied it by 4 times, you got 4 of the strings ... how many beads?
